Seques (Numismàtica)description
Our recent research on the coinages of Emporion has enabled us to collect six new post‐ archaic specimens, probably all minted in the north east of the Iberian Peninsula, which depict the joined foreparts of lion (right) and bull (left) on the obverse. This design, initiated in Sardis (Asia Minor) in the middle of the 6th century B.C., is not known to have been used elsewhere.
